Neurologist in Portland or area

Pdxnewbie

I have been trying to find a neurologist in the area without much success. Any tips? Many say 'not accepting new patients'.

Talk with your primary care provider to see if they can do a referral?

Michael Ellenbogen

Joseph Quinn  Professor, Neurology at Oregon Health and Science University. Director, OHSU Parkinson's Center

Jacob Raber  Professor at OHSU

 

 

I would reach out to these folks and tell them that you need a recommendation for someone who specializes in dementia. I believe they are both in the field. Tell them I sent you as I am connected with them on LINKEDIN. One of them may be good for you. If not they should definitely know who to send you to.

Thanks -- Dr Quinn is on my list as are several others from ohsu. When I call the ohsu neurological number I only get a recording saying that a primary care physician referral is needed. The pcp has not been responding to my messages -- I will keep trying.

 If you want to send me a email with your private contact information with a note I can send it to his private email and I am sure the office will call you.

I got it. Please delete your email address now. I sent you a email. Send it back when completed.

 Just making sure you saw my email to you from yesterday to reach out to Drs Aimee Pierce or Andrew Natonson, 503-494-7772.

I am handing this off to you now unless you need something else. I don’t know either of these Dr.s but I trust the recommendation. I was surprised they were not even connected with me. Good luck.

Many thanks for the referrals.....I will contact them this coming week.
